Faith starves the flesh Optimistic, courage and wisdom feed the spirit



Faith starves the flesh
Everything around you that you use that you do all got created from an individual's ideas, thoughts and determination. You should do something every day which will make you feel like you're keeping promises to yourself, show up for yourself, be your best support. Make sure you're validating the things that are important, keep in mind that we are God's work he molded us and built us. You can't build anything tough enough to endure All Seasons without tools, hammers, Nails, bricks, chainsaws. You need transportation to deliver the equipment. Ships, buses, freight trains, airplanes, tractors. In those moments when you feel tackled; webbed down and uncertain if God heard, be flexible he's busy Hammer jacking, laying pipes, power drilling preparing your mistakes to build your destiny. Faith starves the flesh, courage feeds the spirit. Life is going to give you challenges daily take in what you can get out of it and trashed the load that doesn't fit. Don't let your mouth overload your back, never let anyone or anything hurt you so bad that you quit. Mind yourself that quitting only has one result FAILURE, do you want it as bad as you breathe? Your destination is not your destiny failure is not an option for me.
